Overview

Bhava generates diagrams from a text description or a dropped image, then lets you edit the result collaboratively. It covers the common diagram types and pulls in the right icons automatically, which is the part that usually turns a five-minute architecture sketch into a half-hour of hunting for the correct cloud provider glyph.

Accepting an image as input is the more useful trick. Redrawing a whiteboard photo or a diagram from a PDF into something editable is tedious manual work, and doing it from a photo is a clearer win than generating from scratch.

The free tier covers basic generation with paid plans adding monthly credits, all export formats and the full icon packs at around $10 a month. It suits engineers and product people who need presentable diagrams occasionally rather than dedicated designers.

Key features

  • Diagram generation from a text prompt or an uploaded image
